Definitions
- the invention relates to a Hall sensor according to the preambles of claims 1 and 3.
- a well-known disadvantage of silicon as a Hall detector material is the great influence of mechanical ones Loads (the so-called stress), namely the piezo effect and / or piezoresistive Effects (permanent change in resistance when deformed).
- they are offset compensated Hall sensors, in particular Hall sensors with orthogonal switching are known (compare for example EP 0 548 391).
- the basic idea is one rotationally symmetrical, for example square Hall plate electrically 90 ° back and forth switch here and add or subtract the measured values obtained.
- the Hall plate can approximately as a bridge circuit to be viewed as.
- the characteristic features of claim 1 are proposed as a technical solution for measuring the stress.
- the digital temperature measurement with simultaneous switching off of the Magnetic field measurement uses one or two existing currents of the Hall sensor circuit arrangement and evaluates them in terms of their behavior with given different ones Temperature coefficient.
- a Electricity with a predetermined temperature coefficient can be used. This one A second current with a different temperature coefficient can be connected to the current.
- the Hall plate also serves as a resistor is used for temperature measurement.
- another separate resistor can be used.
- a preferred implementation for measuring the Hall voltage proposes the features of claim 13, further developments for the technical implementation being provided by the features of claims 14 to 16.
- FIGS. 2a and b The stress measurement of FIGS. 2a and b is based on the same basic principle as the magnetic field measurement 1a and b, but with the difference that the feed of the Hall sensor supply current in the second half phase PH2 directed opposite for feeding the magnetic field measurement.
- the consequence is that the Summation of the two orthogonal Hall voltages to compensate for the magnetic field, while the stress-related offset errors do not compensate and therefore as Signal measured and processed. This can reduce the stress caused by stress measured and for examinations and tests of the entire system as well as for compensation be used by errors.
- Fig. 5 shows the union of the individual circuit diagrams of Fig. 1a and b, Fig. 2a and b and 3a and b in a basic overall circuit.
- switch 2 With an appropriate control of switch 2 the three different measurements (magnetic field, stress, temperature) be carried out with the orthogonal switches.
- the DAC current via the internal resistance of the Hall plate 1, the negative feedback signal in converted a negative feedback voltage, whereby the Hall voltage measuring system on Input of the first amplifier 3 is pulled to 0 V on average over time.
- This compensates the negative feedback voltage, the Hall voltage, and the digital ADC output signal is a measure of the Hall voltage (delta-sigma converter principle).
- FIGS. 7a and b The stress measurement of FIGS. 7a and b and the temperature measurement of FIGS. 8a and b take place analogous.
